[Simkilla61]

That chicken needs to see a gynecologist..

[TheOther42086]

"Italian MSG" :-D

[VelveetaCheeze]

the chicken looks funny the way its posed lol

[NatalijaReksc]

Pouring a marinade of RAW poultry over the the food while cooking? Greetings, salmonella!

[mentalkunai]

@NatalijaReksc wouldn't the hot grill cook off the salmonella from the marinade? Just asking.

[ilovesarakim]

@NatalijaReksc The salmonella would die from the grill.

[pjh3228]

The egg yolk emulsifies the oil. That's why it's in many marinades.

[LiaTaffa]

after watching your vids, i don't why people suffer anorexia..

[Lcynthiabrandon]

Woah, no cayenne.

[ninjaimperator]

i'm always hungry, cool channel

[jwheat65]

Anchovies, oh yum!

[enrikejs]

Those anchovies are form SPAIN!!

[kaeto92584]

hmmmm..i was waiting for chef to say "Cayenne"

[gstater4life]

[JavierMTN]

[fightnight14]

[meglaiahorm19]

[NekoCylestia]

Ooh! Looks really spicy! Yum!

[ZuzahGaming]

I watched the spatchcock chicken video a minute before, I thought you said 'gay man', I now realise it was game hen.

Enough internet for me today, thanks Chef John. <3

[Berberin]

It looks spicy huh..you know why? cause it is..

LOL.

[Karpacjanos]

This channel and BBQ Pit Boys are two greatest and most passionate food channels on youtube. Nice work chef, as usual :)

[growingneeds]

I have to make this.

[TheFlyingDaywalker]

What kind of grill do you have, and where can I buy it?

[googo151]

Chef John's a rock star!

[UnOxonien]

Is it wise to use the marinade that's covered raw chicken as your baste?

[FlyonSilverWings]

@UnOxonien yes, because it's going on the grill. the grill heat will handle any nasty bacteria just fine.

[yumakookie]

That is so beautifull

[Energi2DmaxX]

lol anchovies, I enjoy eatting them on some saltines for a snack, they don't bother me!

[sedcher3]

Is it wrong if I had a boner thats bigger when I watch chef's videos then when I watch porn?

[coaster415]

@sedcher3 Yes. but then again, no!

[sxystar41]

Hmm..look at those sexy thighs on those chickens... 

[SoyuzBot]

Italian MSG, brilliant.

[i3i2ian]

love the camera zoom. you can never get close enough to food!!

[shair00]

where did you get the chilis?

[JOHNINCOLUMBUS]

What do you think about injecting the chicken with some of the marinade?

[HskHeroReborn]

Just got done doing a test run with this recipe one word (Magical) great job chef

[dbplaya]

italian msg....funny

[alpha12w]

hey chef John what if i don't have a grill? any tips?

[Slienceikeelu]

@alpha12w A Suggestion i would say is use a cast iron skillet and just form a nice crust with the spices but otherwise you'll only have the nice crust

[Slienceikeelu]

@Slienceikeelu But it wat i think is good

[Antiks72]

THAT'S REAL SEXY, CHEF.

[GustavFors]

make a meatball sub! :) please

[koosdechauffur]

Chef John is a food GENIUS. Best channel ever on youtube?

[carmellac2000]

@koosdechauffur hell yeah!

[Farobay]

i love this recipe..

just watch it make me so happy..

am i normal..?

[Sizzlik]

@Farobay

If your NOT getting happy when seeing so good food..i think then you are not normal =)

[EA78751]

I think the egg's magic is it acts as an emulsifier so the oil and vinegar dont separate.

[29render]

Have I ever said that I love you Chef?! Well, I do and its no homo

[SongHyoRi]

when you cut into the meat I seriously wished that I was the one that gets to eat it

[shogrran]

with all that cooking going on in your house, don't you need someone to eat it all up? I'll send you my resume.

[longlivingdude]

Spatchcocked gay men?

[somethingillregret]

:D in the display still it looks like the chicken needs to pee.

[silverblue008]

hmm now I really wonder what the egg does!

[ghettowulfie]

I love watching your videos in HD... **drool**

[glassesboy3]

*I think Austin Powers spatchcocked a few chicks too...

[zephyrcui]

this looks like a whole piece of bird corpse laying in the plate.....

[0000tiggy0000]

I am so hungry right now.

[jeohuinG]

Depends on the size of your gay men

[lula1699]

lol i love how he says enjoy at the end it made me rofl at 4:57

[cowhunter101]

Freakishly small wooden spoon alert!

[FuriousPumpkin]

Some of your viewers are novices you might need to put more warning about using the raw chicken basting sauce.

[alayitaful]

that brand of anchovies is not italian. Is spanish!!! I love your channel and food porn :)

[fullagrace78]

Jcard

[sarahjf2007]

the Italian side of my family is from Calabria :)

[bubblemuffinxp]

red inbetween the legs.

[meggola]

omg that chicken looks soooo good!

[jcard21]

Looks delicious!

But, doesn't anyone else have a health concern about re-using the marinade sauce onto the grilling chicken? The raw chicken was sitting in this for 8 hours.

I would be more comfortable using a separate batch to baste with.

[Liselorebon]

@jcard21 it's on the grill, you're cooking it just like the chicken itself. You should just never put the marinade on without putting it back on the grill.

[dd08880bb]

I think that egg emulsifies water and oil which normally will separate...

[TheVittleVlog]

That Rocks!

[SomeKnowsLikes]

Friend: wow.. thats a really cool recipie!

Me: of course it is! it's chef john making it!

Friend: oh..!

[gardini100]

i dont know ....but for me this is food magic at it best :D

[switchbladekittykat]

i just think you should know that im am holding you responsible for making me fat and an uncontrolable drooling problem...... please keep up your awesomeness, thanks :)

[DefconBravo]

Couldnt find calabrian, used west indian spicey sauce instead. Works a treat :)

[Athecubus]

Make italian sauce chicken!

[Themegamak95]

Make a pizza!!

[H0OdStar101]

foodwishes > epicmealtime

[zombiesonar]

lol marinading a grown bird in its unfertilised fetus. Thats what it does! it provides lolz.

[DeTaPix]

Chef John > Epic meal time

[Vlad88667]

3:51 WOW, just WOW! O_O

[spam1712]

plz no msg shit

[BlurbFish]

@spam1712 There is no MSG in this, what are you talking about?

[spam1712]

@BlurbFish he said that anchovies are pretty much italian msg, fuck dat shit

[Criterion515]

@spam1712 "he said that anchovies are pretty much italian msg, fuck dat shit"

He said they *refer to it as italian msg*, not that it was msg. If you don't get the joke, msg is a flavor additive that adds a spicy salty taste. Anchovies are used as a flavor additive that adds a spicy salty taste. It's really not hard to understand what he meant and I feel a bit silly explaining it. Maybe if you expand your vocabulary past grade school expletives you'd have an easier time.

[BlurbFish]

@spam1712 MSG is a molecule, and does not vary from country to country.

What it means is that anchovies is to Italy what MSG is to USA; a valuable spice that adds a lot of flavour to the dish.

Also, fuck that anti-MSG hype.

[spam1712]

@BlurbFish do have pimples on your face? body? have allergies?  ill more than once a year? thats im talking about

[BlurbFish]

@spam1712 Is there a proven connection between MSG consumption and those conditions?

If yes, cite the sources that have found them.

[spam1712]

@BlurbFish if there were, msg manufacturers along with preservative manufacturers would go down. there will never be such investigation. only thing you can do is check it out for yourself- watch your health and beauty rise while not eating chemical crap

[ShatterEffectt]

@spam1712 There are connections, people just don't care. For example McDonalds.

[Greengate777]

in a really weird way, when chef put that red chilly between the grilled drumsticks, they suddenly looked kinda indecent... and yummy...

[Syntox]

@Greengate777 - thanks, I don't feel so weird now. Sorta.

[HDvideosaregood]

Thumbs up for slo-mo egg.

[XPaskaX]

Look at them breasts!

[weshasawi]

grilling is an art !!!

[CatalinaXHeartcore]

that raw egg looked disgusting!

[Instylelicious]

it looks so yummy

[TipTopProduction]

Can you do cinnamon rolls ?!?!?

[riceball23]

Why is it bad to put in wet chicken onto the grill?

[marboeus]

This should've been named Calabrian Grilled Cock Recipe. A nice reference to the previous video.

[846524162]

You still didn't answered to my question in your previous video about olive oil, when I offered to send you original bottle of original italian oil. Or Croatian. Since your oil was kinda too yellowish and light, I think you need nice deep green one. Let me know :D

[WeaverDesigns]

@846524162 I will take you up on the offer of a bottle of green olvive oil, I have never tried it..... 75 Jones Chapel Road, Piedmont Alabama, 36272

[Raphaelx2ily]

the "corn hen" was a red head...lol

[kekejojo1212]

anchovy really is italian MSG, except more expensive and perhaps less convenient. anchovies are loaded with natural glutamates, which is why they enhance flavor. same goes for soy sauce, mushrooms, seaweed, and a host of other foods. if you dont want to use anchovies, a pinch of real MSG will do you just fine. (msg isnt bad for you, no different then eating an anchovy or mushroom)

[JB33ist]

good script , nice. Thanks to have you ...



[Asma7111990]

i am going to try adding an egg to the marinade next time i grill a chicken , thank you chef john

[hlimkb]

this is a international dish depending on what your spices u put on it,

like vietnamese,thailand indonesian etc

[BirmzWeedhead]

I LOVE YOU CHEF JOHN

[MKhuuNancy]

wherever you put that chili paste and rosemary ... is .... *blushed and embarrassed*...

[oKeegan]

where did you put the chili sauce tststs lol

[tommygirl20247]

Your beautifully delicious chicken made me forget why i came on youtube -_-

[FixaKnut]

Chef John please join Top Chef / Iron Chef I wanna see you pwn all those people in the show :D

[therealorberon]

Chef John. I blame you for making me enjoyably fat.

[summer08romance]

spatchcock is such a nice word

[SocratesCrime]

The picture of the chicken at the end looks naughty.... hehe

[blksky]

@foodwishes Chef, what camera do you use? The quality is great!

[IFknHateUTube]

i didn't have any anchovies so i used some canned tuna. bad idea

[tommygirl20247]

@IFknHateUTube looool how did it turn out cuz anchovies and tuna have a totally different taste

[hawaiidispenser]

I think Austin Powers spatchcocked a few birds too...

[lilmissunperfect21]

...that sprig of rosemary seems to be suggestively placed

[HardTimesHardBodies]

this looks amazing

[MrKayPham]

marinating a chicken with it's own baby. whole new level of animal cruelty

[BellaFiducia]

@MrKayPham then how about u dont click on a video that says 'chicken recipe' ...... we got news for u, the chicken is dead

[mirella930x0]

@BellaFiducia Hopefully it was just a joke :) Lighten up.

[BellaFiducia]

@mirella930x0 whos to know if its a joke? they gave no hint that it is....either way, this is a video on a chicken recipe....they clearly made a comment suggesting its cruel so u lighten up, troll :)

[etodd472]

@MrKayPham LOL how do you torture something that is already dead?

[scandalousrogue]

I thought Vinegar (I love my vinegar) toughened meat?

[kerberos623]

@scandalousrogue nope tenderizes. the enzymes "loosen up" the meat. as far as I recall.

[yellowspottedtoad]

sort of ironic that the chicken was marinated in a marinade containing egg

[Lisatruck]

Chef John, I usually like your stuff but the presentation is awful. It looks like eating a baby. If someone put that bleeding crotch bird in front of me I would send it back.

[wizdumb420]

egg = emulsifier

[theurbanolive]

IT'S... IT'S... IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!

*tears in my eyes*

[frankdawgg]

I dont think its the smartest idea to baste with the same marinade that your raw chicken sat in!! Other than that it looks delicious...perhaps set some to the side or make a little more.

[miskee11]

I told my friend I spatchcocked a few birds last night and he wanted to high five me. I had nothing against that, but I was confused. I wonder what he thought I meant.

[wildreams]

@miskee11 I don't understand the joke at all but I thought it was funny:)

[winadai]

its pooping chilli

[MaicoGorll]

Man, calabrian chili is really hot, at least mine is. I didn't find sambal here in Brazil, but loking at the texture of it in your video I think, calabrian chili paste looks very similar. I also used it in your cherry bomb chicken, was perfect.

[actorres86]

If we can't find calabrian pepper, is it possible to substitute it with something else?

[AdoaN17]

@actorres86 sambolek pepper? he said that type of pepper is very similar.

[rostant999]

@AdoaN17 "sambal" is a malaysia / singaporean chilli sauce

[VaGurl88]

yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum

[R6bbie]

is the marinade contaminated after it sitting on the chicken for 8 hours? its okay to use back on the chicken? dont most make fresh marinade that was not sitting on the chicken for hours?

looks tasty thanks for the videos :)

[delite3014]

that hen is hot between the legs!! LOL

[caa1000]

I'm just laughing so hard, after watching where did you placed the sauce and the rosemary, between the legs! That's so "Porn" Food! :p

[ZombiedustXXX]

Yup, Chef John...I wiki'd where Calabria was. "/

[bahlsen03]

I'm kind of an extreme internet consumer, spend hours on it, click, type, and learn lots of thing, and this is sometimes tiring. But there is only one moment I take the time to sit back and relax, that's when I watch your videos. Your love of food is kinda contagious, somtimes even moving. I fucking love this moment when I open youtube and see you uploaded a new video, I know I'm on the verge of having a good time.

Thank you.

[amoep]

Your game hen is on it's period

[username121nj]

Chef John..make a middle eastern dish..."not hummus"..lol. I would really like to see how well you do in that area of cuisine.."i hope your up for the challenge".

[username121nj]

that marinade looks like it would be delicious on anything. Hopefully I'll make thiis soon...:)

[karmenJxu]

The egg yolk acts as an emulsifier, so it allows the oil and water to blend together easier =)

[CarolineTurpentine]

can you make ebelskivers? they're danish pancakes and my old roommate used to make them for me!

[GhibliOmatiC]

First spatchcocked chicken, and now firecrotched chicken. ;p

[bubblewrapmonkey]

do people eat a whole chicken in one meal?

[CarolineTurpentine]

@bubblewrapmonkey a family of 4 easily could.

[aquaticneko2007]

@bubblewrapmonkey its a cornish hen. alot smaller than the usual sized baking chicken.

[PCUlzzang]

like how you put the chili part over the "private part" of the chicken

[aquaticneko2007]

@PCUlzzang chickens dont have a "private part" ...

[stooge81]

@ 2:00 *holding my chicken product*. classic. (didn't your parents tell you you'd go blind holding your spatchcock?)

[kenokiatgmail]

looks great john! there is this one place the I call for delivery at work, they have this sambal salmon dish thats to die for

[desertrose88]

can we pop them in the oven instead of grill? i know i won't get those beautiful grill marks. i am a student and we don't have a grill in our dorms. :P

[foodwishes]

@desertrose88 Yes, just be careful not to knock over any bongs when you slide that into your toaster oven.

[maxytheripper]

@foodwishes Thats why I love you chef Jon you are the only chef who takes it "there"

[myemailiscool]

@foodwishes best answer to any comment ever

[wmaxx3]

@foodwishes lol

[Dzaal17]

@foodwishes Ha!

[Dzaal17]

A serious question, ChefJohn, if you are using the marinade, which was in contact with raw chicken, as a baste...then is it safe to use as a baste, when the chicken is so close to being done cooking? I'm not one of those food safety police types, at all, but I do get a little neurotic when it comes to chicken.

[mordeathmark]

@Dzaal17 i am too but if you baste and it still cooks for at least another 5 mins then i wouldnt have a worry in the world
